Two sad events tonight.
1. Bill Dennis has (hopefully temporarily) shut down Peoria Pundit blog until such time as he can afford an internet connection. I’m bummed about this because Bill was the first real blogger to pay any attention to Catastrophic Success and link to it. I wish I could be as prolific and in-depth as he is. I felt that he had really tapped a vein in Peoria and made me wish I had a Bill Dennis in my own city. I doubt my ability to be that blogger. If there are any newsies out there looking for an experienced reporter, check out his resume and give him a call. If any of my potential Peoria readers see this (and you know who you are Ryan), please consider hitting his tip jar and saving a valuable local resource.
2. The other sad thing, which pales in comparison, is that the Taters were served their first loss tonight by the Kenosha Raptors, 127-89. Not the biggest margin of defeat in the league and not the lowest points either. The other consolation is that the IrishMob, which was also 3-0 heading into this week also lost and is still behind me by 11 points. I did lose my point lead in the league also, sadly, and am now 24 points out of first place. I’m hoping I can keep racking up wins so the points won’t matter. I take on the IrishMob next week, so our tied records shall differentiate finally then. I just hope they differentiate in my favor
